Description

Wood Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-frame wing attached to a late 19th-century brick house. The original wing has been faced in brick during the 19th century and features a steep black glazed pantile roof with a gabled end. The building is two storeys high and includes 19th-century casement and sash windows. The late 19th-century addition is not of significant architectural interest, being constructed of brick and pantiles. Inside the wing, there is a chamfered ceiling beam.
